The case involves the adverse possession of a family property that one of the heirs (the esponente) has been living on for over twenty years and is now claiming as his own. This doc is full of Latin expressions, most of which I've figured out, but this one I'm just not sure of.

Explanation:Firstly this has to be a type for "infRigendum".
Standard use, given in the ling below is in the phrase "Interventus ad infringendum iura utriusque competitoris" where in a case where A makes a claim against B, C intervenes to oppose both saying for example, "hey this is mine and belongs to neither A nor B" (see link below). In your case in the context, I thing you can probably just use the verb "oppose".

Ah, it's ad infringendum - brilliant! A typo absolutely never occurred to me, and I was trying to work the verb infingere/fingere into my context. Thanks, very very helpful.4 KudoZ points were awarded for this answer

Hi Sylvia, it wasn't me that sussed this, but Google. In this case, my erm "brilliance" lay in the use of Google. If you Google this on GoogleDotCom Google asks you if you meant "referendum" instead of infigendum, but if you Google on GoogleDotIt it asks you if you meant infrigendum. Naturally I always Google Italian terms on the IT site and English on the COM site, sometimes narrowing it to UK of EDU sites (site:uk site:edu). I also use a special keyboard shortcut windows scripting language (I write the scripts myself) so I can just pull up a specific search just by selecting a term anywhere in windows and hitting a key.http://www.google.it/search?source=ig&hl=it&rlz=&=&q="ad inf...
Forse cercavi: "ad infringendum"

Yep, Google had suggestions for me too, but I usually hate their suggestions and completely ignored them. Didn't help that I actually did find examples of ad infingendum online (but in Latin texts, and I don't know Latin). Anyhow, regardless of how you did it, I appreciate the effort.

agree

Thomas Roberts: The point here is that B is in open possession of A's property, and A does nothing to oppose it, so after 20 years B can become the lawful owner. In old money (and in Scotland), it's called usucapion. /That's in Orkney and Shetland (udal law)!

-> And is probably normally written in ancient Norse runes I suppose, just in case the lawyer's client might actually be familiar with the term.
